Fun experience! - Our guide was very knowledgeable and best part, we got to see a gator, blue herons and a few other birds. Teenagers enjoyed the animal encounters - we got to hold a baby gator, touch a ball python and a turtle. Kat, the animal care taker was very patient and answered a lot of questions.

This was absolutely a... - This was absolutely a great time, my kids loved it. We had Captain Nick and he was very knowledgeable about the wildlife. We saw an alligator and some wild birds. We also loved spending time in the exhibit after our airboat ride! We pet an alligator, and a box turtle.

Above all else, get ear... - Above all else, get ear muffs or ear plugs. The airboats are extremely loud. Beware smells you will be in the wild, animals smell.

Everglades ride - When they say that the boat is at 2:PM....it is really at 2:30 so plan accordingly. They want to give you time in the gift shop

It's was really cool... - It's was really cool experience. The only suggestion I would say is the guide we had was nice but very hum drum! And when we saw the alligators at the exhibit and talked to us about the big alligators another very hum drum worker. I feel they should be excited to work for such great place. The people inside the shop were awesome! Just a few little things but would definitely go back!

Friendly staff but very touristy - It was very anti climactic. The airboat ride was very “commercial” and went exactly a few hundred yards. The little walk around area was a little hinky and just kind of bland. This is really just an over priced tourist trap. On the plus side the people who worked there were all very friendly. If you want to really see the Everglades I would just spend a few hundred bucks on a private air boat tour but if you are looking for a 20-30 minute pretty bland air boat ride around the canal and power lines and another 20-30 minutes at most to walk around and see some reptiles then this is definitely the place for you. Once again on the positive side all of the staff were super friendly so a huge thank you to them.

Viator accepted our booking on Christmas Day & the activity was closed - Viator accepted our booking on Christmas Day when the Everglades airboat tour & wildlife show was closed. We went all the way there. Unfortunate Viator representative kept mentioning that the tour is on but after waiting for a long time when we called the Everglades phone, we were told they are closed for Christmas & they had mentioned all their vendors about this a long ago. Viator should never have accepted our booking in the first place. This was a bad experience & we are waiting for our refund.
